Writer's Block

look
through
books of past
poets before my
twentieth century time
now at modern times as a
writer lesser that of a street
fighter cos at my age back then
I would have worked in a factory
by now selling goods to my enemies
of a nation that prided itself on patriotism
but switch back to a time where more
mental conditions are prevalent
my mind hides the word as I
continue to engage in play
of hide and seek that
word but shit I
had lost my
thoughts
now

Do you know what a full stop is?

Haha- thank you for your intellectual comment, 'anonymous', yet i feel as though your question lacks a sense of understanding on your part- the form is a shape poem; punctuation would merely hinder the presentation of the shape. Thank you for your deep and most profound question.
